A disabled buddy of mine bought a trike back in January .After a load of government red tape and poor communications I have finally got it registered for the road for him.
I have had to completely re-wire it as well as change quite a few things to make it compliant with UK laws.Gave it a paint job last week and it's passed all the tests and has been registered. cooldude
The engine is an original Mini Cooper and it goes very well indeed. Grin

Is that is a truck air horn that I see in the 1st pic?

Sure would love to hear that sound if you can post it.

Very creative work, hope your friend has many happy miles on the trike

Oss, that looks like an Oooh gah horn.    Take a closer look, it has a big round back end on it.

Thanks RJ,I was wondering how to describe the sound,you're spot on.

 I made the towing frame,it bolts to the trike chassis,the front wheel sits in the frame and it hooks up to a car.Quite simple really.
